Revell sent me my replacement rear glass and missing tire for the 1/12 scale Foose Camaro. Sadly the replacement body that was ordered a week earlier and the missing front spindles are still not here.........Also got my photoetch set for the 1/12 Camaro, should make the Camaro Pop.

I sold at my first show 2 weeks ago and had the same thing happen to me. I had some slot car guys offer me 5 bucks for the Newer Nova, Dart and Charger 2n1 kits each. I had sold the racing parts out of them but they were still full stock builds, i had a price of 12.00 each on them but lowered it to 10.00 if anybody was looking at them. The slot car guys said they couldnt pay more than 5.00 because they wouldnt use the rest of the parts in the kit. lol I ended up selling them 4 for 35.00 just to get them away from me.

Progress!! lol Had a small delay with the garage due to trying to bang out some cars for a contest, it was worth it, ended up with a 2nd place in the showroom stock class. I was having some flops on finding a good base i and building one out of some scraps. It will be 18"x18" so i have room to add a partial driveway and a small side yard. Ended up getting the walls glued together, the top plate on, the flooring glued to the floor and the floor glued to the walls. I also started building the trusses. The over hang is too short so i will fur it out with a double gutter board. I am hoping to have the roof finished in a few days. Fingers crossed!

Im most excited about the console gauges. I plan on working headlights, taillights and dash lights on the Camaro. I should get mine sometime this week.

I also have the MCG photoetch kit on order. I hope its as nice as it looks.

Sand it down and polish it back to a shine. Might have to do this several times but it works. I have had to do this to several models. last one being a 71 hemi cuda and a 70 superbird. Both turned out great. Just be sure to let the glue dry before trying to sand......lol ask me how i know.....

Make sure you stop and get your picture at the crash tree!.

No not yet. I almost did it several years ago with the local Mustang club but work got in the way.

Its a decal and they are in great shape. It comes with a Caddy engine and a chevy engine. Not my style but kinda funky. It will be going in the sell box.

sanding round objects

No it can not be wrapped around a part. the sand paper is simply streched from one side to the other. It makes sanding mold lines on exaust pipes much nicer to do. I also use it to sand down front end parts that are just too thick and not real looking in size like steering parts or roll bars. -
Todays haul. Ebay got me again, not too bad though. Only 64.00 shipped for the 4. Sadly i was only after the truck kits. Everything is 100% complete and all bags are still sealed, decals are mint and not yellowed at all. Untitled by jrherald420, on Flickr

Guess this will turn into another Mustang thread that will get cluttered with the whining and complaining that makes it pointless to read. -
